<p>Episode 088 — Moose Hunt, Film &amp; Gear Prep</p><p>The Northern BC hunt is getting close, and it’s time to figure out how the hell we’re actually going to pull this thing off.</p><p>Devin and Curt are joined by <strong>Dalton Petersen of Northern Son Media</strong>, who’ll be behind the camera for this fall’s Northern BC adventure. The boys break down the plan for a remote moose hunt with the possibility of chasing late-season sheep — starting from a wall tent base camp, but staying ready to spike out when the hunt demands it.</p><p>They get into the realities of preparing for remote northern country: cold weather, freezing water, river crossings, grizzlies, gear failures, long days and everything that can go sideways when you’re a long way from home.</p><p>In this episode:</p><ul><li><p>Wall tent base camp vs. being ready to spike out</p></li><li><p>Building a sleep system for cold Northern BC nights</p></li><li><p>Water filtration and storage when temperatures drop below freezing</p></li><li><p>Trucks, quads, walking-beam trailers, winches, chains and spare parts</p></li><li><p>.300 PRCs, bullet choice and rifle setup for moose and mountain hunting</p></li><li><p>Dalton’s approach to filming hunts from <strong>inside the experience</strong></p></li><li><p>Keeping the film raw and authentic while stepping up the production quality</p></li><li><p>Lessons Dalton has learned filming goats, sheep and other tough backcountry hunts</p></li><li><p>Finding the balance between an old-school moose camp and bringing enough comfort to actually enjoy two weeks in the bush</p></li></ul><p>Dalton also gives us a look at how he approaches hunt films — capturing the bullshit, camp life, struggles and personalities along with the kill. The goal isn’t to manufacture a story. It’s to put the cameras in the middle of the hunt and let the story happen.</p><p>This one is part gear talk, part hunt planning and part figuring shit out before three guys disappear into Northern BC for two weeks.</p><p><strong>Moose. Sheep. Cameras. Cold weather. Questionable decisions.</strong></p><p>Sounds like a Come Out Heavy hunt.</p><p></p>
